UNMARRIED COUPLES RIGHTS IN ENGLAND

Unmarried couples rights are very different from the law which applies to a married couple. In property law cohabitees are treated very differently and they have quite different rights in respect of maintenance or pension sharing for example.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common-law_marriage
The term "common law marriage" has been used in England and Wales to refer to unmarried, cohabitingheterosexual relationships.^[27] However, this is merely a social usage. The term does not confer on cohabiting parties any of the rights or obligations enjoyed by spouses or civil partners. Unmarried partners are recognized for certain purposes in legislation: e.g., for means-tested benefits. For example, in theJobseekers Act 1995, "unmarried couple" was defined as a man and woman who are not married to each other but who are living together in the same household as husband and wife other than in prescribed circumstances. But in many areas of the law cohabitants enjoy no special rights. Thus when a cohabiting relationship ends ownership of any assets will be decided by property law. The courts have no discretion to reallocate assets, as occurs on divorce.
